Stump Grinding
Fast, lawn-friendly mechanical stump elimination
Mechanical grinding is the most efficient and lawn-friendly method for eliminating tree stumps. Our high-performance diamond and carbide cutting wheels grind stumps 6 to 12 inches below ground level, reducing the wood to fine mulch. The surrounding lawn and landscaping stay undamaged, and the resulting wood chips can be raked into your garden beds or backfilled level with the soil.

Every stump grinding job is handled with the same care and precision — protecting your property and leaving it cleaner than we found it.

Stump Grinding FAQs
How deep do you grind the stump?+
We grind 6 to 12 inches below ground level — deep enough to lay sod, seed grass, or plant a garden bed over the spot without the stump resprouting or interfering with mowing.
Will the grinder damage my lawn?+
No. Our narrow-tracked machines distribute weight gently and we lay protective turf mats where needed, so your grass and landscaping come through untouched.
Can you get into a tight backyard?+
Yes — our compact grinders fit through standard 36-inch gates, so backyard stumps that big machinery cannot reach are no problem at all.
What happens to the wood chips?+
We can rake them into your garden beds as mulch, haul them away, or backfill the hole level with soil. Your choice — just let us know.
